Latches/locks/linkages, hood, latchMay 28, 2020
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2018 Nissan Altima vehicles. If the primary hood latch is inadvertently released, there is an increased likelihood that the secondary hood latch may corrode over time.
Corrosion to the secondary latch may cause it to bind and remain in the unlatched position when the hood is closed. If the primary latch is inadvertently released again and the secondary latch is not engaged, the hood could unexpectedly open while driving, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will install a stronger release spring in the hood release lever, a warning label near the secondary hood latch, and an Owners Manual addendum card with instructions on how to lubricate and maintain the secondary hood latch mechanism, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 30, 2021. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Note: Recall 16V-029 remains open for any unremedied 2013-2015 Altimas and this recall applies to all vehicles covered by 16V-029 even if those repairs have already been performed.

Structure, emergency, escape/egress/exitDec 19, 2018
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Altima vehicles, previously remedied under recall number 17V-040. The door latch-lock cable may not have been routed properly in the rear door when the remedy was applied. As a result, the cable may interfere with the window regulator causing the rear passenger door to unlatch and inadvertently open without warning when the window is lowered.
If the rear passenger door opens while the vehicle is moving, the rear passengers have an increased risk of injury.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will secure the latch-lock cables in the correct position using the new remedy procedure, free of charge. The recall began February 5, 2019. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7669.

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Altima vehicles. The rear door latch/lock cable on the vehicles may have been improperly routed. As a result, lowering a rear window may inadvertently cause that door to unlatch and open.
If the rear passenger doors inadvertently open while the vehicle is in motion, it may increase the risk of injury to the rear passengers.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will correct the rear door latch/lock cable routing, free of charge. The recall began on February 16, 2017. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied. As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash.
If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury.
Nissan will notify their owners. Chevrolet City Express owners will be notified by General Motors. Dealers will reprogram the Air Bag Control Unit (ACU) and OCS Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in Altima, Maxima, Murano, Rogue, and Sentra vehicles, and replace the OCS ECU in LEAF, NV200, NV200 Taxi, Pathfinder, Infiniti Q50, JX35, and QX60 and Chevrolet City Express vehicles, free of charge.

Latches/locks/linkages, hood, latchJan 22, 2016
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Nissan Altima vehicles manufactured March 6, 2012, to December 31, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the secondary hood latch may bind and remain in the unlatched position when the hood is closed.
If the primary latch is inadvertently released and the secondary latch is not engaged, the hood could unexpectedly open while driving, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
These vehicles were previously included in recalls 14V-565 and 15V-116, however the previous remedy plan may not have been performed consistently to remove the safety risk. To correct this issue, Nissan will re-notify all affected owners and dealers will replace the hood latch with a new one, free of charge. The recall began on February 17, 2016. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261. Note: This recall supersedes recalls 14V-565 and 15V-116.

Air bags, frontalOct 20, 2015
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Altima and Pathfinder vehicles, 2013-2014 Nissan Sentra vehicles, 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles, 2014-2015 Infiniti QX60 vehicles and 2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid vehicles. The affected vehicles received an incorrect occupant classification system (OCS) control unit during a repair. These OCS control units may incorrectly classify the front passenger seat as empty, when it is occupied by an adult.
If the OCS does not detect an adult occupant in the passenger seat, the passenger air bag would be deactivated. Failure of the passenger airbag to deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of injury to the passenger.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will update the OCS software, free of charge. The recall began on November 30, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) notified the agency on July 31, 2015, that they are recalling certain model year 2016 Nissan Maxima vehicles manufactured February 10, 2015, to August 18, 2015. On October 14, 2015, Nissan expanded the recall to cover an additional 41,388 vehicles, including certain model year 2013-2015 Altima 3.5 vehicles equipped with a V6 engine manufactured March 30, 2012, to August 18, 2015 as well as the vehicles covered by the July 31, 2015 notification. In the affected vehicles, due to an improperly installed o-ring that may not have been seated correctly at the time of assembly, fuel may leak during a crash from the area where the fuel sending unit attaches to the fuel tank.
If fuel leaks from between the fuel sending unit and the tank, it may increase the risk of a fire in the event of a crash.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will install a retainer ring between the fuel tank and the fuel sending unit. The recall began on September 28, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

Exterior lighting, Nov 1, 2019
WHEN VEHICLE WAS PURCHASE FROM DEALER, THE HEADLIGHTS WORKED GREAT. NOW THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THE WHITE AND YELLOW LINES ON THE ROAD AHEAD OF YOU. WHEN CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP THEIR ANSWER WAS 'WE'RE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM' AND RECOMMENDED BUYING NEW HEADLIGHTS AT 800$ A POP. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH I FIND THIS IS IN FACT A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND SEVERAL THOUSAND COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN MADE. WHEN CAN I EXPECT A RECALL ON THIS POTENTIALLY DEADLY ISSUE? I ALONG WITH MANY OTHERS HAVE BEEN TAKEN BY A CAR MANUFACTURER THAT PUTS PROFITS BEFORE SAFETY. WITHOUT THE NHTSA STANDING UP FOR THE PUBLIC THIS WILL CONTINUE TO BECOME AND REMAIN A ISSUE FOR INNOCENT AND NEEDLESS FATALITIES.

WHILE DRIVING BACK FROM VACATION ON THE HIGHWAY THE ICON FOR SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND DID NOT GO OFF AS EXPECTED. THE MANUAL SAYS THAT WHEN THIS HAPPENS I SHOULD GO TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALER FOR ASSISTANCE. I LOOKED UP MY CAR AND FOUND THAT YOU DID A VERY ABBREVIATED RECALL FOR MY TYPE CAR . DOES THAT MEAN YOU ARE NOT REPAIRING 2015 ALTIMAS FOR AIR BAG DEFECTS? I CAN TEXT A PICTURE OF THE ICON THAT DOES NOT GO AWAY WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED AS IT SHOULD. AM I IN DANGER OF AN AIR BAG MALFUNCTION? I CAN TEXT YOU THE ICON THAT IS BRIGHT RED ALL THE TIME WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED.

THE VEHICLE CAN BE SITTING STILL AND WHEN YOU PRESS THE GAS PEDAL, NOTHING HAPPENS. THE ENGINE DOES NOT EVEN REV UP. IT IS AS THE ENGINE IS NOT EVEN ON. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN VEHICLE IS IS MOTION AND YOU PRESS THE GAS PEDAL, NOTHING HAPPENS. THIS HAPPENS WHEN VEHICLE IS STILL, LOW SPEED OR HIGH SPEED.

HAVE TO EXTREME CAUTION WHEN GETTING ON THE FREEWAY AND/OR CHANGING LANES IN TRAFFIC.

PURCHASED THE CAR IN 2016 WITH 22,000 MILES. AT THE 2ND OIL CHANGE, NISSAN DEALERSHIP SAID IT NEEDED THE CVT REPROGRAMMED. FROM THAT POINT UNTIL NOW, I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT JUDDERING, SHUDDERING, DELAYED ACCELERATION, AND JUST NOT GOING WHEN THE GAS PEDAL WAS PRESSED. THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED BEFORE BEING COMPLETELY DISABLED, IT LEFT ME STRANDED ON AN INTERSTATE RAMP MERGING INTO HIGHWAY TRAFFIC, THE CAR JUST WOULD NO GO. IT ACTED LIKE IT WAS STARTING OFF IN 3RD GEAR, WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS! WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD THAT IF SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON, BUT IT WOULD COST ME $200 FOR A DIAGNOSIS SINCE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. NOW, MY CAR HAS 140K MILES AND IS OUT OF WARRANTY, THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THEY STILL WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I HAVE ASKED SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT THE MULTIPLE TSB'S ASSOCIATED WITH THE 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA 4-CYLINDER CVT, WHICH MY CAR IS, AND THEY'VE TOLD ME THAT NONE OF THEM APPLY TO MY CAR. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS ISSUE AFFECTING MILLIONS OF CUSTOMERS!

BOUGHT MY ALTIMA USED WITH 60K MILES. AT 80K IT STARTED EXHIBITING A DELAYED ACCELERATION FROM TOTAL STOP AFTER SOME WARMUP PERIOD. WITH 106K MILES, AFTER WARMUP, IT NOW ALWAYS HAS DELAYED ACCELERATION FROM ANY COMPLETE STOP. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL HAS NO EFFECT UNTIL 80% DEPRESSED THEN IT STARTS LIKE ITS IN 3RD GEAR. SCARY IF TURNING ACROSS TRAFFIC. DEALER SAYS ITS A FAULTY SOLENOID IN THE TRANSMISSION. ON LINE COMPLAINTS ACROSS SEVERAL MODELS ARE PREVALENT.

Power train, Vehicle speed control, Oct 4, 2019
WHEN DRIVING IN HOT WEATHER OR A LONG DISTANCE (60+MILES) ON STREETS AND/OR HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. STOPPING IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC, STOP SIGN, STOP LIGHT OR EVEN AFTER HAVING TO DO AN EMERGENCY BRAKE. THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE UNTIL 5-10 SECONDS HAVE PASSED WITH THE ACCELERATION PEDAL PRESSED. THIS ISSUE HAS CAUSED NUMEROUS CLOSE REAR END ACCIDENTS JUST TO MYSELF. A NORMAL DAY OF DRIVING TURNS INTO A GUESSING GAME IF I WILL BE REAR ENDED DUE TO THIS TRANSMISSION ISSUE. MANY 2013+ NISSAN OWNERS HAVE THIS ISSUE AND NISSAN OF AMERICA REFUSES TO RECALL THEIR TRANSMISSIONS. AFTER THE VEHICLE FINALLY STARTS ACCELERATING, RATHER HARD DUE TO HAVING TO HOLD THE ACCELERATION PEDAL TO MAX FOR IT TO MOVE, IT LOSES POWER WHEN IT SHIFTS TO THE NEXT GEAR. RPM FALLS UNDER THE OPTIMAL RPM FOR THE GIVEN SPEED AND FEELS LIKE YOU GO FROM 1ST GEAR TO 4TH GEAR.

MY CAR STARTS TO SHUDDER AND SOUND LIKE IT'S IN NEUTRAL. I WAS TURNING INTO A STORE AND IT STALLED, BUT IT THEN KICKED INTO DRIVE SO I COULD MOVE OUT OF THE WAY OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAVE HAD IT CHECKED BY A REPUTABLE TRANSMISSION PERSON AND WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT BACK TO NISSAN BECAUSE THERE HAVE BEEN SOME RECALLS OR EXTENDED WARRANTY. I CALLED AND LONG STORY SHORT, I WAS TOLD IT HAS NO WARRANTY DUE TO BEING OVER THE MILEAGE AND THERE AREN'T RECALLS. I HAVE CHECKED AND SEE SOME COMPLAINTS FILED BACK OCTOBER OF 2018. MINE IS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING. I SEE IT WAS SOME OF THE MODELS; HOWEVER, IF ALL OF THESE CARS ARE HAVING THE SAME TRANSMISSION PROBLEM, THE WARRANTY SHOULD BE EXTENDED SO THEY CAN BE REPAIRED.
